Seriously? Again? Already? It seems like yesterday we were doing that. (Before it became the signature Rietveld Academy art student look.)
Also, does it make you feel old when a look you used to sport, suddenly resurfaces?

Voila! The super high Prada pumps in cognac??? I like a mix of prints as much as the next guy but this woman looks like she had to leave her home in a hurry and just put all of her favorite things on top of each other as she ran out the door! I do like the idea of belting an open parka though…

I don’t like skirts over pants… at all. It’s maybe a trend but in a couple of decades we will look back like ‘Oh how could I’ve…’ That goes for skirts of leggings as well, another dreadful combination! Be confident ladies! Show your beautiful legs! And if it’s too cold, by all means wear tight.

Loving the parkas, though! So yes, give us an address where to find a nice one. I personally am in love with the Barbour Beadnell, but does that even qualify as a parker? Either way, it is an incredibly versatile jacket.

wow, Ulyana knows how to mix prints, and she always looks so beautiful! but let’s face it: skirt over pants? there’s no one that makes this combo work as Leandra from ‘The Man Repeller’ does, seriously!

No to a skirt over pants, unless the skirt is attatched, two competing waistbands would drive me crazy. I like the yoga leggings with attatched skirt from Athleta, and I like dresses over pants, but what is the point of wearing a skirt and pants simultaneously, I am either in the mood for one, or the other.

I don’t think I could rock the skirt over pants look, because my hips and butt will look even wider than need be, but I like that style on her. She has a very eclectic style, so it works. I doooo love that army green parka with the shimmering gold skirt.

Nooooo skirt over pants! When I lived in Montreal, all the Mont Royal/Plateau hippy girls wore velvet skirts over patchwork baggy pants. We used to fondly call them « Fraggle Rock. » So this is the first image I get in my mind when I hear « skirts over pants »! I just can’t come around to this look. It screams indecision.

This woman looks pretty fab, there’s a nice flow going on. But the skirt over pant thing is all in the execution, it needs to be just right. I felt the same way about the resurgence of stirrup pants a few seasons ago, too trendy for me, but I like to see people going for it.

Yes… And patterned floral pants to boot!! I’m actually already a fan and practitioner of the look. I have a cute leopard shift dress that is a tad too short for my taste outside of Summer, so instead, I wear it with a pair of cuffed jeans underneath. Stylish and practical!

Wow, the parka looks great, I’d definitely wear it! but… I’m not pretty sure about skirts over pants in the 1st look. Maybe pants should be tighter, don’t you think so? I must try the look, tho. The heels are beutiful! what’s that color?

Of course we must us have noticed ,each one of us, your incredible fur lined parka! But did you officially announce where you got such a perfection ?

In the first picture i notice nothing peculiar but a beautiful outfit composed of a ton of pretty things! Are you referring to the skirt-over-trousers? God, people able to make it beautifully aren’t numerous…but she made it!

Love both looks as a whole very much. Well done! Love the bag in the second shot. But, NO NO NO not ready for skirt over pants- uncomfortable! On another note, where to buy a parka here in New York? military shop??

There is so much going on in the first photo, but for some reason, I am in absolute love with it. Everything about it is absolutely fabulous, and I just want it on the cover of a book or something. The scarf and the shades and beautiful skin and bright lipstick have me, but then everything else absolutely compliment- any ‘rules’ broken, easily forgiven and somehow work. She is definately an artist, even if its just at dressing. All I can do is gush.
It looks to me like its a cold, windy, spring-like day and she put on what works while ridding any possibility of dressing in winter drab. On a side note, I’m so happy the trend of heels are back to classic. I never enjoyed the exagerated platforms.

The parkas look very understated compared to the rest of their outfit. I love the floral pants in the first photo. I don’t think I would wear them with the attached skirt. Although, I’m not opposed to a skirt over pants. It is probably something I would do more in the winter than the summer. It’s just too hot for that many layers in the summer.

Oh I’m a big fan of the right dress over the right trousers but that particular picture makes me want to talk about head scarves worn in that style. Now I do love them but wonder do they look a bit contrived, what do people think??

Absolutely would wear skirt over pants – if could find the right ones. I love love love how it’s been done in Chanel – the slim ankle pant with A-line mini and point-toe flat/heel. So cute and I think it’s flattering! However I have yet to find any skirts with that same cut in (more affordable) other lines. C’est la vie!
Wish I could pull off the belted parka, but am too short-waisted…

Yes we are ready! I’ve been wearing skirts over pants for a long time already, skirts and dresses. I think it looks great and gives such an interesting profile to the outfit. Sometimes it looks much better with a skirt than without. My favorite outfit is black wide pants ( yes, I’ve been wearing them as well for years already ) converse shoes, OR high heels, a fitted top or shirt and a skirt over the pants. Dresses looks best over jeans with heels

Garance, you know what would be cool if you did a blog series or just one blog about the places in NY where you like to shop: clothes, accessories. Not big name ones, but more like the ‘best kept secret’ ones :) How about this idea? – Alisa
